Depends tbh. Look for between 8 and 10,000 per year.

10,000-13,000 miles per year.
Would be lower if the car was used mainly for city driving.
Id easily cover 13k a year but I'm living out the country.

Mileage is not an accurate indication of wear & tear on a car so don't get too hung up on it. The more important factors are the condition of the car and how it has been looked after, i.e. service history. I would pay more attention to these than what the odometer reads.
